"Put a bow around the woman you want for me, so I'll know."Associate Pastor Dr. Mark Countryman is a recent transplant to North Fort Myers, Florida. Although it's a paradise for some, Dr. Countryman has never felt more alone. As his fortieth birthday approaches, he reevaluates his past relationships and prays that God will guard his heart so it will not be broken again. If only there was a way he could be sure of God's will.As a child, Shelley Roberts watched her mother lose the battle against breast cancer. In her late teens, she survived a major hurricane with her father while living in Southwest Florida. Now twenty-five, Shelley is a furniture repairwoman who believes in being prepared for every contingency while enjoying life and seizing the moment.A random encounter throws these two people into each other's lives. Soon after, Shelley is assigned to do some work at Mark's church. As they spend more time together, a relationship slowly begins to blossom, though whether they're "friends" or "more" is something neither of them is certain of.While growing closer to Mark, Shelley encourages him to prepare for the upcoming hurricane season-something she had to learn to do some years before. Though a woman of faith, her life's experiences have taught her that preparation is necessary. She is enthusiastic in this belief, even when Mark tries to get her to relax and have faith in God's protection.Their beliefs will be tested when hurricane season begins in earnest and a storm grows in strength as it nears the Florida Peninsula.
Beginning ten years after the end of ire's Captive Moon, this is the story of how Agnarr Halvardson returns to ire with the intention of settling there, marrying, and siring sons. It is also the story of Aislinn, who was a child in Ragor when the Northmen raided eleven summers prior but is now a working physician in her own right. She spent a year in Bangor Monastery and became a Christian before Cowan and Charis returned to take the children to Cowan's village in the kingdom of D l Fiatach and returns there a decade later to finish learning all she can from the monks about their healing practices. When Cowan brings her a patient, injured and temporarily unable to speak, she can't help but find the strong, tall man attractive, even if such feelings unsettle her. Although sparks fly immediately, Agnarr's idea of wedding Aislinn-the physician who heals him when he is injured-is hampered by many factors, including language and cultural differences. There is also the matter that he is the man who kidnapped and enslaved Charis years before. Believing strongly that God gave Agnarr to her as a patient, though, Aislinn does her best. Her knowledge of who he is wars with her unwilling attraction to him. That he makes his interest in her clear doesn't help, as he goes so far as to seek her father's permission to wed her. Can she forgive him for what he did to her village? Can she love him if she does? And will she be willing to accept a life at Agnarr's side even if he does not love her? Meanwhile, other raiders from the North come to ire's green coasts. Pledging his loyalty to the new king, Muiredach of D l Fiatach, Agnarr prepares to defend his new home.
A man of ability and ambition, Tuirgeis Erlingrson has nurtured the desire to carve a place of leadership for himself on the Green Island, ire, that he has raided multiple times. After the death of his wife in Nordweg, he takes his surviving son to ire. Having connections with his adopted brother, Cowan, and Agnarr, his former countryman, Tuirgeis feels he has the support he needs to make his claims strong.Agnarr is torn. His promise to Aislinn to remain with her on ire is still in force, and he resists Tuirgeis's requests to join the conquering forces from Nordweg. He desires above all things to maintain a safe home for his wife and children in Dal F atach. Charis encourages Cowan to do the same, though this makes for tense moments between them.After initial disastrous attempts to achieve his ambition, Tuirgeis comes to learn that there is more to claiming a kingship than merely overpowering the locals. Tuirgeis finds himself at odds with the very people he had hoped would reinforce him. In addition, he wants to establish his father-line. He has one son; he wants another to be born of ire. Will the woman of his choice accept and support him?At length, Agnarr and Aislinn-though she is heavy with child-sail with Cowan and Charis to join Tuirgeis as he battles over one final summer to attain the High Kingship of the island.Tuirgeis knows he doesn't have long to make his claims; the Danes are coming in greater numbers than before. As he wins men of ire to his cause, he has to maintain the relationships he has already fostered with Agnarr and Cowan. Charis finds that her Otherworldly gifts are needed by a man she considers her enemy.

The cult-y pocket-size field guide to the strange and intriguing secrets of the Mojave--its myths and legends, outcasts and oddballs, flora, fauna, and UFOs--becomes the definitive, oracular book of the desert For the past five years, Desert Oracle has existed as a quasi-mythical, quarterly periodical available to the very determined only by subscription or at the odd desert-town gas station or the occasional hipster boutique, its canary-yellow-covered, forty-four-page issues handed from one curious desert zealot to the next, word spreading faster than the printers could keep up with. It became a radio show, a podcast, a live performance. Now, for the first time--and including both classic and new, never-before-seen revelations--Desert Oracle has been bound between two hard covers and is available to you. Straight out of Joshua Tree, California, Desert Oracle is "The Voice of the Desert" a field guide to the strange tales, singing sand dunes, sagebrush trails, artists and aliens, authors and oddballs, ghost towns and modern legends, musicians and mystics, scorpions and saguaros, out there in the sand. Desert Oracle is your companion at a roadside diner, around a campfire, in your tent or cabin (or high-rise apartment or suburban living room) as the wind and the coyotes howl outside at night. From journal entries of long-deceased adventurers to stray railroad ad copy, and musings on everything from desert flora, rumored cryptid sightings, and other paranormal phenomena, Ken Layne's Desert Oracle collects the weird and the wonderful of the American Southwest into a single, essential volume.
